He does not represent the landed or capitalist classes any more than I do. He is keen on social reform, and so am I." in the context of "David Lloyd George, quoted in Lord Riddell's diary entry (18 February 1917), J. M. McEwen (ed.), The Riddell Diaries 1908-1923 (1986), p. 186" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
